Just bought a new computer ( Windows 7) as old one dying. Installed Norton 360 and then transfered all my files using the windows easy transfer. 360 is up and running but I can't do a backup. It won't let me activate the online backup just keeps saying "We are unable to proceed with Norton Account at this time. Please try later". There is plenty of space. I can't even see where to add another computer.
From within Norton 360 click on Account. Select Access Norton Account. From there it should let you login. Once logged in try actvating the backup again.
I followed your thread activated a new backup set that works fine but the orignal backup I dont know how to delete because it is still showing red at risk
Where specifically are you getting that error from: the web when trying to login via nobu.backup.com/n360 or from the locally installed client?
Norton 360's backup functionality is all built into the installed client itself. The web interface is only if you want to download some files but is not necessary for it to work.
